Cans, cups and bowls

We have developed different solutions for packing cans, cups or bowls in cardboard boxes.

Depending on the product type, output and packing pattern, the following solutions can be considered:

  • without pre-grouping with single or multiple pick-up facility (pick & place)
  • with pre-grouping in top-loading
  • with pre-grouping in side-loading

We can pick up the products directly in the flow without stopping thanks to the use of state-of-the-art robot technology (conveyor tracking). In this context, the individual design of the robot tools ensures process reliability and product protection during handling in spite of critical product characteristics, such as beading or a slip lid.

SAMPLE APPLICATIONS:

SAMPLE 1

Robot-Flexline for top-loading of Cyclero packagings with coffee pads in trays. The system packs 200 products per minutes and generates mix packs consisting of up to 4 types.

SAMPLE 2.1

Packing of bowl trays with a Unipicker solution. Up to 120 products per minute can be packed with two manipulators.

SAMPLE 2.2

In addition to horizontal product alignment, the product can also be arranged vertically as an alternative.

SAMPLE 3

Packing of cups in trays with a Unipicker solution with 3 delta robots for outputs of up to 180 products per minute. The product types are detected with a colour camera and mix packs consisting of up to 4 types are generated.

SAMPLE 3.2

Packing of cans in trays with a Robot-Flex-Line solution. We have developed a special clamping gripper for product-protecting and process-reliable handling of the cans as single cans or shrink-pack stacks.

SAMPLE 4

Packing system for cups in trays based on a Robot-Flex-Line solution. The high mobility of the 6-axis robot permits loading of the tray in spite of the stacking flap.

SAMPLE 5

Packing of aerosol cans in wrap-around cartons with a side-loading solution. The Unipacker constitutes a very economical alternative for simple requirements.

SAMPLE 6

Packing of plastic trays with slip lids in trays. As a result of the design of the gripper which is adjusted to the product, safe handling in top-loading can be ensured in spite of the slip lid.
